Chapter 733: The Great Xia Needs You
Hokkaido.
High-end club.
Inside the private room, everyone fell silent after hearing all the information from An Qingyu.
Their expressions were extremely serious.
“Something happened in Takamagahara?” The knight furrowed his brow tightly. “How could this happen… There was no intelligence on this at all?”
“But they indeed abandoned the ‘Human Circle’; otherwise, the Oracles wouldn’t dare to harbor any rebellious thoughts, let alone privately mobilize the soul fuel within the ‘Human Circle’ to prepare for the creation of an Oracle army,” Lin Qiye agreed with An Qingyu’s reasoning.
“Fortunately, they haven’t found the existence of that relic. Once they discover a way to leave the ‘Human Circle,’ they will undoubtedly start replicating the Oracle army and initiate a war against Daxia.”
Wu Xiangnan regained his composure from the information provided by An Qingyu and couldn’t help but sigh.
Wei Dong nodded. He stood up from the sofa and sincerely thanked An Qingyu:
“Thanks to you for providing the intelligence; otherwise, we wouldn’t have received such confidential information until we stormed into the [Pure Land]…”
An Qingyu raised an eyebrow. “Don’t thank me; I didn’t collect this information for you. If you want to thank someone, thank our captain.”
Wei Dong was taken aback.
The knight nodded thoughtfully, also standing up from the sofa, and solemnly performed a Western knight’s salute to Lin Qiye:
“Captain Lin, on behalf of the Shangxie Society, I extend our sincerest gratitude to the [Nightfall] team.
I will report these matters truthfully to the president, and Daxia will surely receive the news. After you return to your country, we will award you for your merits…
Moreover, your Fifth Special Team is essentially the ‘Mist Walker’ of the Night Watchmen. You will likely enter the mist frequently, and if your team encounters any difficulties in the mist, the Shangxie Society will definitely lend a helping hand.”
The knight’s gratitude was quite substantial, and given his position as a special envoy of the Shangxie Society, he could indeed make such promises.
Lin Qiye did not decline and gladly accepted the goodwill of the Shangxie Society, but he was somewhat puzzled by the knight’s mention of “Mist Walker.”
“Every special team in Daxia has its own unique responsibilities; I believe you are already aware of this,” Wu Xiangnan noticed Lin Qiye’s confusion and began to explain.
“The 001 [Heroic Spirit] team is responsible for guarding Daxia’s national fortune;
The 002 [Medium] team is responsible for hunting down extremely dangerous malignant superhumans within the country;
The 003 [Phoenix] team is responsible for eliminating foreign ‘mysteries’ that have infiltrated the country;
The 004 [Mask] team is responsible for clearing out powerful domestic ‘mysteries’ across various regions…
And the 005 special team is tasked with walking in the mist to execute high-risk missions. Previously, this function was handled by the [Blue Rain] team, but…”
Wu Xiangnan paused, looking at Lin Qiye with a complex expression. “From now on, this responsibility will fall solely on your team…
Once you return to your country and officially complete the formalities, acquiring your own name, you will become the ‘Mist Walker’ of Daxia’s Night Watchmen.”
“‘Mist Walker’…”
Lin Qiye murmured to himself.
“After defeating the team from Shangjing City and obtaining the qualification to become a special team, you have been missing for more than two years. Coupled with the vacuum period following the destruction of the [Blue Rain], Daxia has not had a team fulfilling the ‘Mist Walker’ duty for nearly ten years.
If it were two years ago, it would have been fine, but during your absence, Daxia’s situation in the mist has become increasingly perilous. Without the 005 team’s ‘eye’ in the mist, Daxia will become more and more passive.”
Wu Xiangnan looked seriously into Lin Qiye’s eyes, took a deep breath, and spoke slowly:
“You must return to your country as soon as possible!”
“Daxia urgently needs the fifth special team.”
Lin Qiye nodded slightly. “I know we should go back… but what about things here?”
“Everything in the ‘Human Circle’ is our responsibility; you don’t need to worry,” the knight replied. “Next, we need to familiarize ourselves with the terrain here, prepare a list of fifty thousand people for extradition, devise a destruction plan, and then bring the main force of the Shangxie Society over… This process will take at least another six months.
If you continue to stay here, it would be a waste of time. As Wu Xiangnan said, the entire Daxia is waiting for you… You shouldn’t be here.”
Lin Qiye remained silent for a long time but eventually nodded.
“I understand.”
…
[Pure Land].
An Qingyu looked at the now-closed electronic screen in front of him and let out a long breath.
“Qingyu, are we going back?” Jiang Er floated beside An Qingyu and asked.
“Yes.” An Qingyu turned to look out the window, gazing down at the tiny city below, a slight smile appearing on his lips. “After drifting outside for so many years… I can finally go home.”
“What about here?”
Jiang Er gently raised a hand, and the entire electronic screen of the [Pure Land] flickered to life. “Should we delete all the databases here? What about the body reshaping and soul replication devices inside…”
“No.” An Qingyu adjusted his glasses, the lenses reflecting a pale light from the screen’s snowflake glow. “Qiye said his sword will only be repaired tomorrow, and we have some time before we gather again…
Let’s copy all the data here. As for those soul replication devices and the data on the god-making experiments… I will analyze them personally.
This [Pure Land] is a treasure combining technology and mystery; it would be too regrettable to destroy it just like that.”
An Qingyu’s gaze swept around, and he spoke calmly:
“I want all the technology of the Oracles…”
…
Tokyo.
Kazemizuki Family.
Wearing the kimono of the young master of the Kazemizuki family, Yuzuna walked slowly through the courtyard corridor, the maple leaves falling gently with the breeze, scattered before a quiet courtyard.
Yuzuna reached out and lightly knocked on the wooden door.
Knock, knock, knock—!
“Come in.” A man’s voice came from inside.
Yuzuna pushed open the wooden door, and a figure in black, holding a straight sword, sat quietly on the tatami, staring at the fallen leaves in the courtyard, lost in thought.
“Brother Caoyuan.” Yuzuna stood at the door and said, “Brother Qiye called and asked me to send you to Hokkaido.”
“To Hokkaido?” Caoyuan turned his head in confusion. “Didn’t he say yesterday to wait for him here?”
“He said he found a way home.”
Caoyuan’s eyes subtly flickered.
Yuzuna opened her mouth, seemingly wanting to say something, a hint of faint sadness flashing in her eyes:
“Brother Qiye said that tomorrow night, you all should leave… perhaps, you will never come back.”
Caoyuan remained silent for a long time, stood up from the tatami, hung the straight sword at his waist, and let out a long sigh…
“I understand. Thank you for your hard work.”
